Government and Military track
AI competency, measured for government and military
Written for work where the record is the point. Public accountability, procurement rules, classification, and decisions that have to be explainable to somebody who was not in the room and may be reviewing them years later.
Who sits this track
Civil servants, policy staff, defense and public-sector professionals.
Nine tracks exist because the competencies that matter to a clinician are not the ones that matter to a teacher. The framework, the three proficiency levels and the scoring are shared. The items are not.
The judgment this track measures
Scenario items ask what a person would do, not what a term means. These are the situations the government and military items are built around.
- Using a tool on material whose handling rules you are accountable for
- Documenting a decision so it survives review and freedom-of-information
- Assessing a vendor claim about an AI system during procurement
- Explaining an automated or assisted decision to a citizen affected by it
- Knowing which tasks may not be delegated to a system at all
- Length
- 40 items, plus the readiness checklist.
- Time
- 20 to 25 minutes. No time limit.
- Levels
- Acquire, Deepen, Create.
- Status
- In CVI review · V 0.1
- Result
- Not pass or fail. A baseline and a set of gaps.
What this track answers to
Every track is aligned to the shared frameworks, and additionally anchored to the professional guidance governing its own audience rather than borrowed from another sector.

Common questions
Is the Government and Military track available today?
Not yet. The Government and Military track is at V 0.1 and its items are with an independent expert panel for Content Validity Index review. Nothing is sold before it has passed review. Register interest and we will offer you the pilot cohort first.
How long does it take?
Most people complete the assessment in 20 to 25 minutes. There is no time limit.
Is it pass or fail?
No. The assessment returns a proficiency level and domain scores. There is no passing score. The purpose is to establish a baseline and identify areas for development.
How is this different from the other tracks?
Written for work where the record is the point. Public accountability, procurement rules, classification, and decisions that have to be explainable to somebody who was not in the room and may be reviewing them years later.
Do participants choose their own track?
No. The access code an organization issues is bound to one track, and entering it puts the participant on the right instrument automatically.
Who sees my results?
Your results appear on screen as soon as you finish. Whether the organization that issued your code also receives them is set by that organization and disclosed to you before you begin.
What is it validated against?
Every track is content-validated before publication by an independent panel of at least six subject matter experts, none of them the item authors, and is accepted at a scale-level S-CVI/Ave of 0.90 or above.
